Student Life

Students can make positive choices and become productive members of their schools, their families and society.

8 Keys of Excellence, eight principles to live by that have been helping students for over 25 years. Wherever they're introduced, the Keys provide a meaningful way to improve cooperation, learning and teamwork and create a supportive, trusting environment where each student is valued and respected.

8 Keys of Excellence:

• Failure Leads to Success Understand that failures simply provide you with the information you need to succeed. There are no failures, only outcomes and feedback. Everything can be useful if you know how to find the gift.

• Speak with Good Purpose: Speak in a positive sense, and be responsible for honest and direct communication. Avoid gossip and harmful communication.

• This is it: Focus your attention on the present moment, and make the most of it. Give each task your best effort.

• Commitment: Follow through on your promises and obligations; live your vision. Do whatever it takes to get the job done.

• Ownership: Take responsibility and be accountable for your actions.

• Flexibility: Be open to change or a new approach when it helps you get the outcome you desire.

• Balance: Keep your mind, body and spirit in alignment. Spend time developing and maintaining these three areas.
